Revised 2016 MotoGP calendar released
SEVERAL rounds of the 2016 MotoGP World Championship have been rescheduled including the British Grand Prix.
The British Grand Prix will now take place at the beginning of September as opposed to July seen in the first provisional 2016 calendar.
Due to this, the German Grand Prix at the Sachsenring is now scheduled to take place a week later than previously stated in place of the British Grand Prix.
The other minor change shows the International rounds now end at the Sepang International Circuit in Malaysia at the end of October rather than Australia before they head back to Europe to Valencia for the season finale.
Brno and Jerez still remain subject to contract, but the remaining 16-rounds are now confirmed.
